Sorry- I was responding from my inbox, and I got confused :-)

Also, C'thulhu fans are still a fringe, but Zombie fans should certainly be represented.

A lot of people might enjoy the new Trek, but the last movie was completely empty calories, and did not create a phenomenal following like TOS and TNG did. And the next movie probably won't either. Fast food, quickly consumed and forgotten.

Yeah, and that made NO sense. How in the hell did Walter create that level of technology, and why involve Peter? Plus the self-generating time loop- so stupid, and probably just the dumb Bad Robot team writing themselves out of a hole.

Trek faltered in it's third season only because Roddenberry knew it was on the way out, and turned his attention to figuring out his next paycheck. So the impending cancellation (which was supposed to happen in the second season, when the show was creatively on fire) cause the third season "slump, which is actually…

You have to realize a few things about the times the show was made it. We know SO much more about the universe and technology now than we did then. Not only among scientists, but the general public. There's so much more they could get away with then, that even children now would know is just silly.

That was the first thing I clicked on the article to check on. This is the second time recently Trek has been notably excluded from an io9 list it should have been on (the last being sci fi shows tragically cancelled before their time).

There's no Star Trek movie coming out next Summer. And one didn't come out in 2009. Because if it had, it wouldn't have been so forgettable as to slip this list.

But Jewish Mom Scientists say: bring a sweater.

IF there were a nigh infinite number of universes, so many that there were some that were anything like ours, how would we happen to randomly find the similar ones, in the almost infinite number of universes that were absolutely nothing like our own? It's so ridiculously unlikely as to be fantasy. Plus, there's…

Wow! I need to see if I have a Paley Center membership. Thank you, Charlie Jane! Have an extra slice of pie on Pie Day for me!

What?!? What about New York City? I'm tired of watching Classic Who alone. On my birthday last week I tried showing "City of Death" to my girlfriend and her kids (who all love modern Who), but the heathens couldn't take it.

I've seen rape scenes in movies that I appreciated on different levels- from Planet of Terror to Alfred Hitchcock's Frenzy. But I would be very careful how I refer to these scenes out of context- especially when using an intentionally humorous and cutesy phrase like "rape virgin".

It's the casual joking about being a "rape virgin" that I find distasteful. I understand it's a memorable scene in an iconic movie, but that shouldn't mean any rape reference should be made lightly, and lots of people seem to do so these days. I think we should take pause before we dismiss and cute-ify a horrible act…

It's a college level class for drawing comics. Drawing and iPads (for reference) are welcome.

There are no real "theories" of time travel, but this is a fact: You can't create something from nothing. The Observer tech had to have been developed, designed, and manufactured. It can not have come from itself. That's just silly, not to mention impossible. Dumb writers if that's where we're going. Don't be a dumb…

Yes! Thank you. It's important to understand the difference between a real, scientific THEORY (based on EVIDENCE) and hypotheses. Also the difference between believing in something because of evidence, and believing in it because you really wish it was true. If the second one is the main reason you believe something,…

I am thankful for YOU Annalee. Happy tofurkey day!

Silly question, Annalee-
